College Prowler Take
The two most frustrating run-ins a student will have with Furman’s Public Safety are for alcohol and parking violations. Many students accumulate hefty parking fines throughout the year that are difficult to pay off. The only time officers seem to let up a little bit is on the weekends. Alcohol violations also have harsh monetary fines, and a note sent home to the student’s parents. Although many people are able to get away with alcohol on campus, the consequences seem unduly harsh for students who are over 21. Although Public Safety doesn’t make Furman’s policies, they are certainly good at enforcing them. Of course, students appreciate having a safe campus, but most of them wish Public Safety restricted their lives to a much lesser degree. Students Speak Out

Furman is technically a dry campus, but if you're into the drinking scene, you can find it. Although it's not allowed in any on-campus housing, if you're reasonably quiet about it, you should be good. Furthermore, there is an amnesty policy in place where if anyone gets sick or in danger, you won't be penalized if you alert the infirmary. It seems like the Furman Police spend more time giving out parking tickets than breaking up any drinking parties.

Parking violations are a big pain, and FUPO will get you--don't park in the wrong lot! Theoretically, drugs and alcohol are no-no's at Furman, but (even though I don't drink) I know the RAs and Housing are completely lax about it unless they get complaints.

Although you can get written up for drinking, it's nothing more than a slap on the wrist. Nothing major happens, and most of the time it's just a small fine and a paper---nothing like the tickets or arrests that can be made at big schools.

They’re really strict about alcohol because it’s a dry campus, but I’ve never known them to make any arrests for minor in possession. |

FUPO is very strict about the drinking policy. If they see a student carrying a cooler, they will often ask to look inside, and if there is alcohol, the student will be written up. They are not pushovers like at some other schools. |
